What Is Shock?
Complex syndrome associated with cardiovascular failure to deliver blood 02 nutrients

clinically identifiable manifestations which signal the body's inability to supply o2 to the cells
Hypovolaemic Shock
decreased circulating blood volume leading to decreased cardiac output and reduced tissue perfusion
Transport Shock
insufficient haemoglobin to carry the required oxygen to the tissues
Obstructive Shock
Inability of the heart to fill properly (tamponade) oro obstruction of outflow from the heart.
Pulmonary embolism,pneumothorax ,cardiac tumours, dissecting aortic aneurysm
cardiogenic shock
circulatory failure caused by inability of a damaged heart muscle L or R ventricle to pump the required amount of volume blood with each stroke
treatment of shock
hypo perfusion focus regardless of the underlying cause of classification of shock
goal to achieve adequate perfusion and optimum o2 delivery
CO must be restored and maintained
Cardiac Output CO
the amount of blood pumped each minute is a product of HR by SV
Stroke Volume SV
dependent on preload, afterload and myocardial contractility
Preload
reflects the V of blood in the ventricle at the end of diastole, just before systolic contraction ejects it. If the V increases, the amount ejected increases. FRANK STARLING LAW
4 stages of shock
Initial
compensatory
progressive
refractory
Initial
decreased cardiac output, tissues under perfused increased anaerobic metabolism, increased lactic acid accumulation
compensatory
reversible- mechanisms activated to compensate for decreased tissue perfusion
progressive
failure of compensatory mechanisms
refractory
cellular necrosis and multiple organ dysfunction sydnrome
Anaphylactic Shock
severe allergic reaction caused by an antigen antibody
insect venoms pollens shellfish penicillin nuts
mast cell degranulation release of mediators resulting in massive vasodilation and severe hypotension
